cant get into the debate of same sex marriage cept to say I support it 100%
pollies are stupid arsed greedy idiots that only see what they get for themselves..
now I shall get off my soap box,,
lol, what a great little illustration. shes a silly cow... i can not listen to her, i hear her voice and want to turn the tv off - drives me batty!! :)
I took part in the whole Get Up campaign for this one, even had my local MP contact me after the fact to confirm I was part of his electorate.
All I want to add to this is that while the PM's official stance is against the legislative change, I'm sure that given her very liberal (small 'L') background her personal opinion conflicts with her public one. Such is the nature of politics. It does not help a cause to attack individuals at a personal level despite your outrage. You have to attack their ideas and logic or risk turning a potential ally into an enemy.
Oh, and I think the PM is cute. She's got a pretty smile...but I have not and will not vote for her or her party again. Nor the Chimp in Opposition for that matter, just to be clear ;o)

On a different note, the UK has just lifted the ban on gay men donating blood... !
